(ANSAmed) - TEL AVIV, AUGUST 08 - With the conclusion of the 'Breaking Dawn' operation against Islamic Jihad in Gaza, the military radio quantified the attacks by the Palestinians and the operations conducted by Israel.
From Gaza, he reported, 1,100 rockets were fired, but only 900 entered Israeli territory while the others fell back into the Strip.
The Iron Dome defense batteries intercepted 380 rockets that directly threatened areas inhabited in Israel.
According to the broadcaster, this is a 96-97 percent success rate, clearly higher than those recorded in the last ten years in the operations conducted against Hamas in Gaza.
According to the broadcaster, this is due to the constant improvement of those batteries.
The new laser rocket interception system has not yet been used and according to the broadcaster will only be operational in one to two years.
In three days of fighting, Israel struck 170 Islamic Jihad targets in Gaza.
Among these: a military tunnel, warehouses, launch pads, emplacements and even prominent members of the military wing of that organization.
Ten lancid rockets were intercepted on the ground, in real time.
